(4,131 posts)Im the first person to call out misogyny. Calling someone a Karen is no different than calling someone a Dick. Its simply a label that has cropped up the last few years to pinpoint someone acting in a socially unacceptable manner - in this case, someone who is exploiting their privilege, at the expense of another person, often in a racist way.

(5,801 posts)But pretty sure everyone realizes that.
I didnt even see the b-word.
That ABSOLUTELY is misogynistic.
Again my apologizes.

You don't make sense. It seems like you are just trying to pick a fight.
Kind of silly.

(25,255 posts)I'm surprised that Aunt Jemima kept selling all these years.
We never bought Aunt Jemima products in our home. My mom never bought them and I was born in 1956. My husband's sister would buy the pourable mix for her kids. We were raised on Bisquick and Log Cabin. (Aunt Jemima may be have been a better quality product than Bisquick for pancakes, but my mom would never buy it and I never did)
However, we were big consumers of Cream of Wheat, so there's that....... (However, there was no suitable substitute for Cream of Wheat..Malt-o-Meal was even a bigger PITA to make than CoW and didn't taste as creamy) Also being Armenian, shipments of Cream of Wheat saved many lives and is staple in many of our desert recipes.
